 Hello everyone. I am Dr. Gopal Krishna, consultant orthopedic and joint replacement surgeon practicing at Manipalas Petal Jainagar. The biggest boon we human beings enjoy over all other creatures on earth is mobility. With all the health and wealth we possess, if we were to be like trees struck at one place, life would have no meaning. Hence in orthopedics, we believe that life is motion and motion is life. Unfortunately, arthritis, a disease of the joint kills this mobility and hence life. Arthritis can be an age related wear and tear or it can be secondary to a systemic disease. And joint replacement is the greatest invention in this field and it is a very gratifying procedure both to the patient and to the operating surgeon. It takes pain out of the joint, adds stability, improves the mobility and thereby improve the overall quality of patient's life. Joint processes being a combination of metal is an insensitive structure and takes the pain out of the joint immediately. With advancement in the technology and the design in the processes gives us confidence to address various challenges and the deformity. A satisfied patient is a best reverence and one will not need a better reverence or a study to prove the efficacy or outcome of a surgical procedure. And a person who suffers pain becomes dependent, has a poor quality of life and finally undergoes a joint replacement can attest to the fact that it's a wonderful procedure.
